man I wish WB wasn't so touchy with stuff on youtube, because I would have shared that end credits scene in the episode of DCS because he was doing a game of Remote Control (a game that was played on Whose Line only twice) with Ryan Stiles

hey I didn't grow up with Carol Burnett, I only saw his episode of DCS, the Simpsons, Hot In Cleveland, and possibly  whatever episode of glee he was on I can't remember which one (it must have been a later season episode, and IMDB just confirmed that)

You would be wrong.  Geto Boys are legendary in hip hop and Bill stood out (for a couple of obvious reasons).  This wasn't even the 1st time he died!

If you've watched Office Space, you should be familiar with their most famous song, "Damn it feels good to be a gangsta".

and i'm aware of who he was because that moment when he shot his eye out, was included in the VH1 special countdown 100 most shocking moments in Rock n Roll (from 2001, not the 2009 list with Chris Jericho), hey it may be foolish but when I saw that in 2002(hey back when Gusto was still MuchMoreMusic they were still showing Classic Rock stuff), I thought of that as a history lesson
